How to Get 2 People to Approve Content in WordPress

This guide will show you how to get more than one person to approve content before it’s published in WordPress.

We received an email from a PublishPress user who wanted to set up a content workflow for their team. They wanted to receive content from Authors, and then get two people to approve it before publishing.

This is the set-up we’ll use for this example:

Bob. He will write the content. We’ll put him in the “Contributor” role.

Donald. He will be the first person to check the content. We’ll put him in the “Author” role.

Jane. She will be the final person to publish the content. We’ll put her in the “Editor” role.
